BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA: 2 WEEKS

You will fly first into Argentina’s cosmopolitan capital city, Buenos Aires, where you will be met at the airport by our friendly, lively organiser and settled in to your accommodation.

I really loved time here in Buenos Aires. Met so many great people. I'm going back later this year to find work. I love Buenos Aires! Matthew Rocket

The seductive and bustling capital of Buenos Aires is a city rich in cultural heritage, renowned for its cosmopolitan, chic attitude. Buenos Aires hosts a surprisingly European feel, reminiscent of Paris with its chic tree-lined avenues and wonderful plazas which have a beguiling, faded elegance. Certainly one of Latin America's most popular cities, there is plenty to keep you entertained - day and night…

The elusive spirit of Argentina is present everywhere in Buenos Aires. The national dance, the Tango, is perhaps the best expression of that spirit - practiced in dance halls, parks, open plazas, and ballrooms, it is a dance of intimate separation and common rhythm, combining both an elegant reserve and an exuberant passion.

RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL

Jammed between miles of coastline and mountains, Rio is one of the world’s most beautiful cities. Famous for carnival, samba and the soft white Copacabana beach, Rio pulses with life. The inhabitants of Rio pursue pleasure like no other people! Fully utilizing their impressive beaches with beautiful people, dancing, music, ice cold beers and the local firewater, cachaça!

I have never met such happy people in all my life, Cariocas love to sing and dance and this for me was a great thing to experience. I would definitely recommend a trip out to Rio, it really was the best time of my life! Stephanie White

The Statue of Christ is undoubtedly the most iconic of Rio's many landmarks. The outstretched arms of Christ seem to embrace the entire city and on a clear day you’ll have 360º views of the city from the mountain, allowing you to appreciate Rio in all its glory; from the sprawling inner city areas to the forested mountains to the tropical blue sea littered with a hundred shades of tanned flesh. During the day, Rios cafés and beaches are the place to be, thriving as the sun shines. At night, the clubs, restaurants and dance halls dominate. This is a world designed for spontaneity and mingling.

QUITO, ECUADOR

Ecuador is small and big - small in size and big in bio-diversity. The Amazon and the Andes draw millions of visitors and so do the fascinating Galápagos islands which lie some 600 miles off the coast. Ecuador is a must-see country to explore. We have projects located in Quito, the vibrant capital city, and the fabulous Galápagos islands.

The city of Quito is very friendly with lots to do in the evenings, including an array of restaurants that cater for every taste in food.

I had so many experiences there that I could NEVER have gotten anywhere else. Ecuador is a beautiful country andIi met so many people from Ecuador and all over the world. A couple of my friends and I went to the Amazon rainforest for a weekend and it was an experience that I can NEVER forget! We went to a lake in the Amazon and we swam around and none of us have ever felt more free and in touch with the nature around us. At the Jamu Lodge we did not have electricity which was cool because we did everything by candle light and that was perfect for when the tour guide would tell us his jungle stories. That was an experience that I thank god everyday that I had the chance to have. Sarah Murphy, Ecuador Care Project
